Item Description
Power Blade hands you a boomerang and dares you to master it. Nova, Chief Security Officer of the colony New Earth in the year 2191, is called in when aliens knock the Master Computer offline, and his only way to restore it is to recover data tapes from six sealed-off sectors. His weapon arcs out in any of eight directions and curves back to his hand, and learning to bank it around corners and into enemies above and below is what gives Taito's action-platformer its distinctive rhythm.
Structurally it owes a clear debt to Mega Man. A stage-select screen lets you take the six sectors in any order, and each one is a sprawling maze rather than a straight line. Somewhere inside is a contact agent who hands over the ID card for the sector's security room, where a guard boss stands between you and the tape. Power-ups extend the boomerang's power, range and number, so a fully upgraded Nova is throwing a small storm of blades, and the Power Suit takes things further, firing Power Blades that cut through most surfaces. Passwords keep your progress, which you will appreciate, because the falls are as deadly as the bosses.
There is a great story behind the cartridge. Power Blade is a heavily reworked localization of the Japanese Power Blazer, with completely overhauled levels, improved controls, all-direction throwing, multi-boomerang upgrades, the agents and the Power Suit all added for the Western release, along with a new, unmistakably Schwarzenegger-styled hero in place of the original's cartoonish lead. The driving soundtrack is by Kinuyo Yamashita, the composer of the original Castlevania.
Power Blade has built a devoted following among NES fans over the years, and it earned a sequel in Power Blade 2. For players who love Mega Man, Contra-era action and late-NES polish, it is one of the console's best-kept secrets and the starting point of a small but cherished series.
